From the Resurrection to His Return
Don CarsonBooklet 2015-01-20
This is not another book on what view to hold about the end times, but how to live in the light of Jesus' imminent return. Don Carson contends that the Christian church has always lived in what the Bible calls "the last days" - the period between Christ's ascension to his Father in heaven and his return to earth on the clouds. Based on Paul's teaching in 2 Timothy 3, Carson gives wise counsel to today's church to avoid false teaching and to seek good mentors - those who will lead us in truth. He shows the folly of trusting worldly wisdom, and encourages believers to cling to the Bible as the only sure source of guidance. To live in the last days is not to hang on in quiet desperation but to boldly take the word of God and apply it to every situation, knowing that it will meet every need.
